FAQs
What material is The North Face Glacier Pro Jacket - S made from?

How should I wash this jacket to keep it in good condition?
You can machine wash the jacket at 30 degrees Celsius (86°F) on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low or air dry.
Does this jacket have pockets for storage?
Yes, it features two zippered front pockets and one zippered chest pocket, offering secure storage for your essentials.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The Glacier Pro Jacket provides comfortable warmth and is excellent for cool to cold conditions. For very cold or harsh weather, it's designed to be an effective mid-layer when combined with appropriate base and outer layers.
What kind of closure does this jacket have?
This jacket features a quarter-length zip fastening at the collar, allowing for adjustable ventilation and easy temperature control.
Is this product environmentally friendly?
Yes, it is made from 100% Recycled Polyester, which helps to reduce waste and the demand for new raw materials, making it a more environmentally conscious choice.
Can I wear this jacket as an outer layer?
While it can be worn as an outer layer in mild, dry conditions, for full protection against wind, rain, or very cold temperatures, it is best utilized as a warm mid-layer under a protective shell jacket.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm or appears matted over time
Ensure you are washing the jacket at the recommended 30 degrees Celsius and avoiding fabric softeners, which can coat fibers and reduce loft. Gently brushing the fleece after drying can sometimes restore its texture.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to move
Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. If not, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or rub a graphite pencil along the teeth to help it glide more smoothly.
Pilling (small balls of fiber) appears on the fabric surface
Pilling is a natural occurrence with fleece over time, especially in high-friction areas. Use a fabric shaver or a specialized lint comb to gently remove pills without damaging the fabric. Washing the jacket inside out can also help reduce pilling.
